    Abstract:
    A new oral cephem antibiotic, cefteram pivoxil (CFTM-PI, T-2588), was studied for clinical efficacy in the field of pediatrics. CFTM-PI was given orally to 23 patients with the following acute bacterial infections: 6 cases of acute tonsillitis, 8 of acute bronchitis, 2 of scarlet fever, 4 of bronchopneumonia, 1 of acute otitis media with sinusitis and 2 of urinary tract infections. Clinical results were "excellent" in 8, "good" in 14, "poor" in 1: the efficacy rate was 95.7%. As an adverse reaction, diarrhea was observed in 1 patient. From the above clinical results, it appears that CFTM-PI is a useful antibiotic for the treatment of pediatric patients with various bacterial infections.
